This raised ground-floor one‑bed flat on Upper Hollingdean Road offers a long lease (115 years) and a straightforward, chain‑free purchase — attractive for first‑time buyers or buy‑to‑let investors. The open-plan living/kitchen provides a bright, modern feel with spotlights, neutral décor and double‑glazed windows. Heating is gas‑fired with radiators and the property is in good move‑in condition so minimal immediate work is needed.
Practical benefits include an off‑street parking space, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, plus low local crime. The apartment occupies about 400 ft² (c.37 m²), making it a compact, manageable home or rental unit close to Brighton’s amenities, transport links and local schools.
Be clear about limitations: the flat is small and has no garden or notable views. The wider area is classed as deprived and the building dates from 1900–1929, with cavity walls assumed uninsulated. A service charge is quoted around £1,000 (detail and frequency unknown) and the tenure is leasehold — these are important budgeting considerations.
Overall this is a sensible, low‑maintenance central Brighton one‑bed with long lease and good connectivity; suitable for someone prioritising location and convenience over outdoor space or large rooms.
